top 5 reasons to join pvma as a practice manager

PVMA represents practice managers across Pennsylvania. From our very beginnings as the only statewide veterinary association, our mission has been to ensure the vitality of the profession by providing educational opportunities which enhance your skills and your practice’s profitability, advocacy to protect the scope of practice and your interests, and business tools and resources to help your practice team be successful. Here is just an example of ways we can help:

continuing education

PVMA offers reduced registration rates for our members to our four major conferences a year. Conferences are located across the state so no matter where you live, there's a convenient location for everyone.

​We also offer free webinars and district dinner meetings throughout the year for you to gain more knowledge from the comfort of your home or office.

business tools and services

PVMA offers a portfolio of tools and services that will help your practice save money. Bankcard processing, payroll services, on hold messaging, and energy buying services are just a few of the services we offer our practice owners. We also offer benchmarking tools that can result in significant positive changes to your bottom line and access to statewide surveys that show you how you compare to others.

​Have a question and not sure where to turn? Our management team is available to assist you with questions you have related to practice. Even if we don’t know the answer, we will research it and get back to you – saving you time, hassles, and money.
